Senior Software Engineer - Backend Interview Experience - Barcelona, Spain
Process
First, there was an HR interview, but the interviewer asked too many questions. Most of these questions are listed in other posts.
Then, there was a technical interview. It was also easy.
Next, there was another technical interview. It went really well, but the interviewer rejected me for directly providing an advanced answer. He was expecting me to provide a simpler, yet problematic, answer so he could pinpoint the issue. This did not happen, which left him disappointed. Funny, though.

Revolut Work Experiences
- 5.0Great hiring and onboarding processSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeBarcelona, SpainNovember 20, 2025Pros: Well-structured internal processes Documentation Benefits CompensationCons: I've been here just 2 weeks, but no cons, to be honest.
- 2.0They pay high because of extra working hours. If you prefer to be a no-lifer for extra money, this is the best place for youAndroid Software Engineer • Current EmployeeBarcelona, SpainNovember 17, 2025Pros: Highly talented engineers and managers (no lifers). They are scaled, but still expect startup dynamics, and it's not working for engineering's future. They will lose real talent in a few years.Cons: Burning out engineers for little more money. If you want to work 8 (normal) hours per day, never look at Revolut. They don't pay you for extra working hours. They expect you to do it fully free for a high salary.
- 1.0Very Bad WLBSenior Android Developer • Current EmployeeBarcelona, Catalonia, SpainOctober 31, 2025Pros: Remote work and the option to work from different locations: Dubai, Spain, Portugal, and Poland. Big projects.Cons: Really bad work-life balance, hire-fire culture. Old teammates were barely helpful in a super stressful environment all the time. It's like a startup. I would never recommend joining it for anyone.
